I strongly disagree - it is being continually developed. eCos forms part of eCosPro and both are continually being developed with new targets, platforms and functionality routinely being developed and added. eCosPro 4.0 was released last year and eCosPro 4.1 will be released shortly (already shipping beta to specific customers). I fully accept that the public version of eCos has suffered from a distinct lack of contributions - eCosCentric have always been the major contributors but decided for various reasons to take a passive role a couple of years back and concentrate more on its own product, eCosPro. Should we ever decide to contribute or branch (there are significant enhancements which may warrant it), the public version of eCos would receive a big boost, but these features are already available to our customers. -- Alex Schuilenburg Managing Director/CEO eCosCentric Limited Tel: +44 1223 245571 Barnwell House, Barnwell Drive Fax: +44 1223 248712 Cambridge, CB5 8UU, UK www.ecoscentric.com Reg in England and Wales, Reg No 4422071 -- Before posting, please read the FAQ: http://ecos.sourceware.org/fom/ecos and search the list archive: http://ecos.sourceware.org/ml/ecos-discuss
